lonely. :(

A few hours ago I was eating the food he bought me… He bought it in the afternoon, so by the time I ate in when I got home it was already cold. I don’t really like eating cold food (unless it’s meant to be like that), and it’s much worse knowing that the person who bought it for you is so far away.

Thinking of what to do this week since I’m so free. At least mum will be home tomorrow (she should anyway) so I won’t be stuck here alone… and she’ll probably ask me to do the housework, which I’m too lazy to do most of the time. Heh. Guess I’ll need to make a trip down to the library one of these days to return my books and borrow new ones, read the notes for next week’s lessons in church as well as the other set of notes they gave out today. And really look through my Japanese book and remember how each character is read. It’s been taking me forever because I keep forgetting. -.-

a bit of secondary school

I met Miss Thio at the bookshop yesterday. She still looked the same… and she still remembers me. Haha. We talked for a bit before we each went to get our own things. She said that Linus emailed her the other day… wow I don’t even have her email address, and even if I did I wouldn’t know what to write anyway.

I don’t know why her current classes don’t seem to like her that much. To me she was never a bad teacher, but I know that back then she treated our class nicely as compared to some of the other classes. From what I’ve heard anyway. At least she made me regain a bit of interest in Math after every bit of it died away in lower secondary, thanks to the teacher. -.-

I haven’t been back to Fairfield since last year… or was it the year before? It would be nice to go back and take a look one day, but then with the school building being new, most of my teachers having left the school and not knowing the current students there (since most of those I know have already graduated), what do I go back for?

huh?

This practical booking thing is confusing me. When I log into the system it shows the vehicle model and random group I’m assigned to. But when I choose a slot and try to book, a message sometimes shows that the group for the particular timeslot and/or vehicle model is different from what I’m assigned to on the top of the screen. I can still book though, but I’m not sure if I should.

Does the grouping and vehicle model matter that much? What’s the difference if I book one different from what the system initially assigns me to?

evaluation done, test to go

It was back to the driving centre today with Joanna. Initially we had only booked for theory practice sessions, but in the end we did our evaluation as well. Passed that, and booked for my theory test on the 9th.

The driving centre seems to be a meeting place for ex-classmates. Met Jan, Julienne and Zihao again today, and I was surprised to see Shao Ru doing her theory practice and evaluation too. She was telling me that she met Anqi and Hui Yian on the day she had her theory lessons. Saw Chong Ling walking out when I was waiting to take my evaluation, though she didn’t see me, and before I left the centre I met another NJ friend. Those whom I meet regularly are mostly those who are not working… like me. Haha.

bored!

Sometimes I enjoy being able to stay at home. To not have to work and be able to do the things I want. If not for the fact I’ve stopped work I probably wouldn’t have registered for driving yet, for the lack of time to go down to the driving centre and queue to register. Wouldn’t have borrowed his Japanese textbook from him to look at and maybe learn a few things… Yet there are times when you see everyone else (well almost) working, being busy with something and earning money, and you just wonder if you’re missing out on something. It’s so hard to even find someone to go out with because everyone is busy throughout the week. People don’t even come online that often anymore. Sigh. When I start working again I probably will be complaining of not having a lot of free time though. -.-

That stupid science quiz thing. I wish he never pushed it back so many times. That’s the bad thing, plus it’s really not easy teach secondary school students the JC syllabus. But the good thing if I still take it up is that I can get another part time job, and the timing should allow me to learn driving in the day and do some other things. Boy tells me not to do it anymore though because of all the delays, but that versus a full time office job… at this point of time which suits me better?

Meanwhile I’ll be rotting away at home until the results come out and possibly even longer. Actually I’m supposed to redesign the church website, but I have no inspiration to do anything to it. It’ll be worse than this week since I won’t be going out much. No one to go out with in the first place and no driving lessons from next monday onwards until 7 March or later, since that’s the earliest date available so far for the theory test, and I can’t do anything else until I pass it. -.-
